Huo Yao did not know what Professor Rong was thinking. She only nodded. Deep down, she was already thinking of saving the neglected field of bioinformatics.
Since no one had contributed to the field for more than a decade, she would be letting herself down if she did not challenge it.
Rong Jun's eyes darted around before he added. "Of course, you can't neglect your studies in the Physics faculty."
Then he handed Huo Yao a stack of study plans that he had specially made for her.
"Take this back and read it. Although we agreed that you don't have to come to the Academy of Physics and Engineering, you can't neglect your studies."
Huo Yao took the documents and flipped through two pages. Most of them were about research projects. She did not even frown as she agreed. "Sure."
For Huo Yao, other than the Chinese she had studied in high school, she had no problems with science subjects.
Rong Jun felt a little guilty when Huo Yao agreed so readily. "Don't you think... there's something wrong with the higher-ups' arrangements?"
After all, Physics was only her second major. Moreover, the plans the higher-ups had for her were even stricter than the ones for the students in the institute.
Huo Yao did not flip through the documents again. Instead, she replied. "No."
Rong Jun knew that the young lady was not the perfunctory type, so he was relieved. "Remember to collect your homework from Professor Wu Yue after school in the afternoon."
"Sure." Huo Yao nodded.
Rong Jun's phone rang. He stood up and said, "Sure. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to look for me or ask me on WeChat."
Then he walked to his desk to answer the call.
Huo Yao did not disturb him and quickly left the office.

Zhao Lian hurried back to the institute's office after lunch. He had a lot of work to do.
Before long, Qi Hui came looking for him with an application form. It was about genetic engineering, and the experiment required a large amount of funds.
Zhao Lian frowned when he saw the amount. "We haven't allocated funds for this quarter's experiment. I don't think the institute has much reserves left."
Qi Hui nodded. He said the idea that he had thought of a long time ago, "I remember that the information science faculty hasn't started any big research projects in the past two years. We can temporarily transfer some of their money over for emergencies. That way, we won't need to use the reserve fund."
After a pause, Qi Hui continued, "I've asked the information science faculty's finance department. They still have more than a million in their accounts. With this amount of money, our genetic mutation research project should be able to last until the state funds are allocated."
Zhao Lian raised his head and looked at Qi Hui. "This isn't good. I won't agree to it."
Although the information science department did not have any groundbreaking research projects in the past few years, the annual allocation of funds was relatively small.
In a situation where they had very little funding to begin with, if they were to transfer their funds to another department, wouldn't that be equivalent to trampling on the last bit of face of the information science department?
Qi Hui guessed that Professor Zhao would react this way, so he took out another experiment progress report.
"Our institute has been researching the Genetic Mutation Curriculum for two years. Now, both the instructors and students have found a new direction. It's a critical time, but we don't have the funds to start the experimental plan. It's equivalent to wasting everyone's time and effort."
